Description

This cell line is a clonal derivative from the Cas9-Expressing A549 Cell Pool (BPS Bioscience, #78072). It was generated by limiting dilution of the original pool and isolation of individual clones, which were screened based on Cas9 expression to obtain a high-expressing (78134-H) or low-expressing (78134-L) cell line. The expressed Cas9 protein includes a C-terminal FLAG tag.

Purchase of this cell line is for research purposes only; commercial use requires a separate license. View the full terms and conditions.

Mycoplasma Testing

This cell line has been screened using the MycoAlert™ Mycoplasma Detection Kit (Lonza, #LT07-118) to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma contamination. MycoAlert Assay Control Set (Lonza, #LT07-518) was used as a positive control.

Background

Cas9 (Streptococcus pyogenes CRISPR associated protein 9) is an endonuclease enzyme that, when recruited to a specific DNA sequence by the sgRNA (single guide RNA), introduces a double stranded break into the DNA. This double stranded break is repaired in mammalian cells either through Non-Homologous End Joining or Homologous Recombination. Non-Homologous End Joining often results in the deletion or insertion of several base pairs at the cut site, which, when resulting in a frameshift, causes the functional inactivation of the targeted gene. Cas9-expressing A549 cell lines can be transduced or electroporated with sgRNA targeting a gene of interest to quickly generate knock-out cell pools or cell lines.

Storage/Stability

Cells will arrive upon dry ice and should immediately be thawed or stored in liquid nitrogen upon receipt. Do not use a -80°C freezer for long term storage.

Culture Conditions

For best results, it is highly recommended to use these validated and optimized media from BPS Bioscience. Other preparations or formulations of media may result in suboptimal performance.

Thaw Medium 6 (BPS Bioscience, #60183): DMEM medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin

Growth Medium 6C (BPS Bioscience, #78077): DMEM medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin plus 0.25 μg/mL Puromycin to ensure recombinant expression.

Cells should be grown at 37°C with 5% CO2 using Growth Medium 6C to ensure recombinant expression is maintained.

Instructions for Use

See assay protocol for detailed instructions.
